“Ugh, My head hurts and why do I feel this place is familiar”
Edward said with a confusing expression as the only thing he remember was meeting an old man who was thanking him for helping him and asked what Edward need in return. After that he could only hear some mutter about Life your next life with no regrets.
“Wait this place? Don’t tell me it’s…”
As Edward regains some of his clarity he starts to look around and to his absolute shock, he discovers that this place was his old room back when he was still attending high school. The room was just like back then where it was littered with leftover pizza boxes, dirty laundry, and instant noodles cups.
“Oh my God, Have I been reincarnated like one of those novels that I use to read ?”
Edward was freaking out because of the absurdity of this situation. Who would have thought that one of his wishes was granted by a drunkard old man no less instead of a beautiful godness or angles?
“This is absurd, Wait if this is really when I was 18yr then doesn’t that mean my parents…”
Edward instantly calm down when at the thought that he could finally see his parent again.
‘Instead of sitting here doing nothing, I better go check if this is a dream or reality’
Edward sprung from his chair and rushes to the bathroom and the thing he hope for came true. This isn’t a dream it’s reality because the face in the mirror was not the handsome man with a clean-cut beard but instead a face that scream immature.
After assessing that this situation wasn’t a dream but instead reality Edward started to get excited because this mean that he could finally see his parent again. Edward left the bathroom and walk slowly to the living room.

Edward’s chest was thumping hard as his blood start to boil and all kinds of excitement and adrenaline starts rushing in finally at the entrance to the living room he saw a woman who look rather young and with her blond hair that dance in the air making her look like a goddess as She preparing the breakfast for the family. Sitting on the chair next to the kitchen was a man reading a newspaper while drinking instant coffee the air around is gentle and kind which makes one want to strike up a conversation with him.
The woman’s name was Cynthia currently a housewife for the mason family and also Edward mother as for the man’s name was George who works as a supervisor for a construction company. Finally seeing them again the flesh made Edward so emotional he cried but seeing his parents look over Edward tried to calm down his beating heart.
“Mom and Dad, I miss you so much”
Edward said loudly as he rush to hug Cynthia and George. The two couple was surprised at what was going on with their son today and why is he so emotional all of a sudden but they didn’t like this side of Edward and Cynthia ask
“Eddies What happen? Do you need some money for school ?”
“No mom and dad I don’t need anything. I just want to hug you all”
Edward said with such a genuine smile that even his parent got frighted and even make them think that their son has been switched with somebody else. There’s no way the troublemaker Edward became this soft and kind all of sudden he must have a purpose.
‘Damn, this is all the young Edward’s fault for making his parent suffer so much that even this little bit of love already surprise them a tons’
Edward smiled bitterly when he saw his parents react with disbelief as to what happened to their child for this to happen.
“Alright, I have finished preparing the food let’s go and eat at the dinner table” Cynthia said with a warm smile that make people want to take care of her.
‘Ah, this is the smile that charms my dad so much. I miss this happy moment so much’
Edward thought of the story behind the two couples where at the time Cynthia was working part-time in Skybuck and George happen to go buy a coffee there. As Cynthia finishing making the coffee she handed it to George and said with that same warm smile
“Here your coffee sir”
When George sees that smile he instantly falls in love with her so he frequents the store to see Cynthia and whenever she isn’t at the store George was disappointed. After a month George finally got the courage to ask Cynthia out for a date to go see a movie and to George’s surprise, she accepts so quickly. What George didn’t know was that Cynthia also got a crush on George but she has difficulty expressing them and when she hears that George also loves her she was very happy and excited.
